Solved Gnome3 stopped working after an update

Hi all,

Today after a pkg upgrade gnome3 has stopped working.
The GDM screen appears normally, prompts for login, but the screen becomes dark with only the mouse pointer appearing.

The problem also happens if you disable GNOME and GDM in rc.conf and start with startx.

Code:
gnome-session-binary 1177 - - WARNING: Calling GetSessionForUnixProcess failed.Check that ConsoleKit is properly installed.
gnome-session-binary 1177 - - WARNING: Could not get session id for session. Check that ConsoleKit is properly installed.

Any welcome help

The problem only happens when I use bash.
It works normally on any user with sh.

Curious is that before the upgrade it was working normally with bash.
